NXT Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair decided to make her way onto WWE SmackDown just days after Becky Lynch announced that she’d have to take a break from the ring.

With Lynch gone for at least a year, Flair has the chance to once again become the top woman in the company while working with Bayley and Sasha Banks could be a great idea.

The show had three of the biggest Superstars on WWE in the SmackDown ring

Three of the Four Horsewomen took the ring as Bayley and Banks interrupted Flair during her promo. The two best friends teamed up to poke fun at the most decorated woman in WWE, but Flair did not back down and tried to drive a wedge between the two Superstars.

After trading some insults, The Role Model challenged The Queen decided to a match down the line, and the latter accepted, resulting in a Champion vs Champion match that is now scheduled for next week.

This was a good segment that allowed WWE to build upon the second coming of the Wild Card Rule that has likely been put in place to increase ratings. Flair played her role perfectly well and helped create more cracks in Bayley and Banks’ friendship.

Will we finally watch The Boss turn on her friend at Backlash?
